Re: Fosamax side effect

: Anyone else have joint pain and stiffness after starting to take : Fosamax? I started taking a 5 mg. preventive dose and began : having ankle pain two weeks later. Stopped taking it immediately, : but my ankle is still not normal almost two months later.: bjm

I did not have that kind of side effect from fosamax.I was on it for almost a month,5mg also,and got burning in my throat.I had taken it correctly with the extra water etc. I have stopped it.Also have been reading some scary stuff that can happen as side effects. Barb.
